The worst a person can do is not learn from their mistakes.

About Me

I just got out of the navy! And to all you dudes back on the Mount Whitney remember, "Friends dont let friends reinlist." Anyways I got a badass job now as a Systems Engineer. The reason it is so great is that it pays three time what I made in the Navy. So now that I finally have a little money to spend I am now going spend crazy. But, I am a fun loving guy who loves to hang out, watch movies and have a few laughs. Or play some chess under the influence of jack and coke. If I can get some of my buddies together in one spot we can have the famous "hour of truth." MyWackoSpace MySpace Generators MySpace Editor MySpace Icons Icons Collage

My Interests

I like to do any activity under the sun. Heres a short list. Surfing, snowboarding, computer gaming, reading, watching movies, taking walks listening to music, working out, paintballing, and anything else you can think of.

I'd like to meet:

Most anyone. I find most people are nice enough to know. The only thing I can not stand in a person is hypocrasy.
Your Power Color Is Lime Green
At Your Highest:

You are adventurous, witty, and a visionary.

At Your Lowest:

You feel misunderstood, like you don't fit in.

In Love:

You have a tough exterior, but can be very dedicated.

How You're Attractive:

Your self-awareness and confidence lights up a room.

Your Eternal Question:

"What else do I need in my life?" What's Your Power Color?

Music:

I mostly like alternative, rock, and classic rock. But I do branch out to other genres and artist like Gnarls Barkley, Santana, maybe a little Brooks and Dunn. I can listen to mostly anything. My favorite bands are Fuel, Disturbed, Metallica, Crossfade and P.O.D.

Movies:

I have a huge movie collection. Its a weird hobby of mine. I believe I have more movies than Hollywood Video. My favorite movie is Shawshank's Redemption. If you havent seen it tell me and I'll burn you a copy. Other than that there is "Life As a House", "How to Kill Your Neighbors Dog", "Boondock Saints", and "Fight Club".

Television:

I dont watch too much TV anymore. I mostly buy the Seasons of any show I like. I got some Smallville, Las Vegas, Titus and a few seasons of In Living Color.

Books:

I read entirely too much. My old room looks like a library now. My favorite writers are R.A. Salvatore, Terry Goodkind, Orson Scott Card, Robert Jordan, and Piers Anthony.

My Blog

So I am trying to write a book and would like your opinions.

My friend Scott and I came up with this a long time ago when we were in high school.  There were a few PC games we played that we particularly liked and had the crazy idea of writing a book (or a...

A changed Perspective

During my few months at my new job I have noticed that those I work with at FEMA break up a given year a bit differently than most anyone else I know.  No longer do they segment a year into 12 mo...
